There's something special about a full-sized Pontiac. A mixture of big chrome, intricate bodywork, and an imposing stance made them boulevard kings. So when a 1964 Pontiac Catalina hardtop with a 400 V8 and tri-power is up for grabs, it's time to take notice.
This was the era when Pontiacs were out to dominate the road with the Wide Track style that made them legendary. You especially see it up front where the grille tapers inward just so the stacked headlights can protrude with an .....
even more attractively imposing face forward. And the kick-up at the tail panel seems to draw even more attention to imposing elements like the well-creased rear quarters and unique tail lights that curve with the rear bodywork. The paint holds close to the 1964's Silvermist Gray, but it's a more modern respray. Today it knows how to radiate for the right kind of attention without losing that easy cruiser quality. That's the overall theme of the car, it's a sharp-looking driver. Those upgraded 18-inch Ridler alloys even let you fit better driving tires.
The maroon interior retains a deep color while giving you great details, like the intricate cloth inserts in the seats, bright door trim, and a clean dash. This Catalina loves to keep the vintage vibe, right down to the AM radio in the dash. But they also added some very useful cruiser upgrades under the dash, like an auxiliary gauge trio and an AM/FM/CD stereo with a USB input to plug in your modern smartphone. So this is a great one for rolling down all the side glass on the pillarless hardtop, cranking up your favorite music, and going for a drive.
Under the hood is one of the best features of them all. You have two Pontiac legends: the mighty 400 cubic-inch V8 and a triple set of dual-barrel Rochester carburetors for a tri-power setup. This one may require a bit of shadetree tuning and dialing in for your ideal cruiser setup, but often that's the fun of owning a coupe like this. And we also like that it has the right easy driving features like a three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, power brakes, and modern grippy tires.
This is the cool/classic coupe that has the right style and power setup to really own the road. Call today!!!
